Arsenal Vs. Wigan (FA Cup Semi Final) 12th April Saturday 5pm

Patters

Likely Wigan team according to their fans.

Don't know who the fuck they are so I guess I can give Wenger's pre-match team talk.

Last night I dreamt that we conceded a goal in the first minute.

I'm actually dreading having to spend part of Saturday watching this game. I just see the same thing over and over...

Slow, laboured passing between the back line. Per, TV, Per, Sagna, Per, TV, Gibbs, Arteta, TV, Per...
No movement from our front 4. Eventually Per carries the ball forward and passes straight to one of our attackers who has his back to the opposition goal. He immediately loses the ball, and Wigan come streaming forward. Pass, Pass, Pass, Goal!

That Wigan team reeks so much of lower league. If we don't beat them we totally deserve to go another 9 years empty handed.

IBL

They beat City so we cant underestimate them

What would you have him do instead? Start Källström and Zelalem in a FA Cup semi? We don't have any other players left.

Bleeding hell. That is depressingly true.

Not really it's full of players who have played in the premier league for years

That's not a dream. that's a normal day at the office.

A dream would be that we beat them 1-0 while just jogging, then win the Final with a good sweat and 2 goals up. Then we get 4th and Wenger retires lifting a cup. We then get a superb manager who spends ALL the transfer money that is available on a SUPER SUPER striker and CM, DM and a LM as good as Di Mario. He then gets a windfall from The Kronk who gives him 40m to spend on a few great squad players and looks into the injury problem which turns out to be some problem with the water pipes at Colney / Emirates and is easily fixed. Ozil and the new striker fall in love (on the field) and score so many goals Suarez looks like Giroud (unless he is the one we sign). We then go on to win the PL, CL and the next FA Cup.

Now that's a dream.

Save us Ramsey, save us 🙂
He could do, singlehandedly.
Gibbs, Rosicky and Chamberlain all doubtful?
Wenger's just toying with Wigan.

lorddulaarsenal

I'd be well up for zelalem starting. He's top notch

frusciante

he has been quite underwhelming for the reserves lately actually, but hes getting used to play deeper i reckon

Rex

His game defensively has been atrocious the times I have seen him. He certainly needs to improve that side quite a bit before he should get into the first team squad properly.

I was reading this post whilst listening to

Interesting experience.

Just seen this proposed as a starting eleven

It's not as if we have a whole lot of choice but there's no way Wenger would do anything as radical as drop Cazorla or play Podolski and Giroud up top together.
We are a bit screwed in midfield if neither Chamberlain nor Rosicky pull through.

Wenger changing formations mid-season? I think Wenger leaving at the end of the season is more likely, and I don't believe in that one iota.

You can't just throw in a brand new formation without the players getting accustomed to it and learning how to play it

Do they have upsets in the FA cup? 😆

Kurtz

That's a good relegation fodder in the PL esque team. Boyce is a real rock at the back and Gomez/McManamann can cause us problems.

Biggus

Yeah, too bad this is not the PL.

SpeedTouch

Arsenal's last 2 FA Cup exits:

vs Blackburn
vs Sunderland

Wigan belongs on that list
